 How to Build & Power
Tune Distributor-type
Ignition
Systems

 This book is well
written, precise and
most informative.
It was a bit of a
revelation... I never
thought of ignition
systems in this way
before.
It shows you how to
modify and improve your
engine with expert
tricks and knowledge
that'll maximise
acceleration,
tractability,
progression, fuel
economy, efficiency and
horsepower.
Des Hammill gives
in-depth information on:
-
how
to maximise and
sustain
ignition/spark
quality
-
What
is ignition timing,
-
what
is Static advance,
idle advance,
mechanical advance
progression, vacuum
advance, full
advance,
-
how
to make precise
timing marks,
-
points type
distributor and
electronic type
distributor basics
and how
to modify them,
-
what
are centrifugal
weights and how to
modify them,
-
standard Coils,
uprated coils,
racing coils,
alternators, HT
leads and lots more.
This book gives expert knowledge on how to really wring out your engine's full potential. Covers all traditional distributor based ignition systems.
Great book, concise -
top marks!
